Twenty Sided Dice

Chapter 242: scrutiny of the past

readx(); The knight ordination ceremony of Heimland was held the next day, and the time seemed rushed and the preparations were not sufficient. The venue was right in front of the castle gate. Only the residents of Heimland attended, and there were no representatives of other nobles. It was not solemn enough. After the war, there are still many traces left by the war, some wreckage has not been cleaned up, and life is far from returning to normal. But the ordination ceremony is a good new beginning, and the new knight represents new hope and brings confidence to everyone.

Isaac, held in his mother's arms, also attended the ceremony. Heim has an heir, which gives the knights more peace of mind when they serve. Besides, Siegel is younger than most of them, and now he has become a famous lord in the New World. I believe that Heimg will develop further in the future.

Mana becomes the acting lord, taking care of the realm while Siegel is away. Humke took over the management of the Myr City army, and he was responsible for recruiting and training new recruits and defending the castle. Many human knights are not optimistic about the half-orc Humke, but when they think of the Stone Village and the Striped Mountain Gold Mine, and most of the people living there are half-orcs, there is really no more suitable person than Humke.

Siegel understands his subordinates' thinking, and he never supports any racial prejudice, but will make up for it in other ways. Promoting a few knights is what it should be, but rewarding the castle is beyond everyone's expectations.

His voice was powerful and uplifting: "The alliance of nobles and bandits in the south has started the war, and this matter cannot end if they want to end it. Starting today, Ser Manna will lead you to the south to attack, and take those who do not surrender. The castle and manor are captured so that they will not continue to provide convenience to the enemy next time."

Fighting wars is a good thing for those who are professional knights, especially after three lands are occupied, they will be distributed to the knights with the best military exploits, which makes everyone's fighting spirit even more exciting. Everyone looked at Mana with eager eyes, knowing that this woman as the commander and acting city lord was the key to everything.

"I am a baron now, or a double baron of Starry Kingdom and Waterdeep City. Although I can only promote knights and knights at present, it may not be the case in the future, so you have to work harder. Go with me." Siegel at the ceremony Finally, he said: "It is said that the New World is a land of hope, full of opportunities. I agree with it, I don't know what you think?"

"For Heimland!" The knights knelt on one knee and drew their swords in front of them. Renew the oath to Siegel again.

After this, Siegel met three stewards selected by Feizac, arranged for them to be responsible for the daily affairs of a castle after the war, and was assessed by Feizac a year later. One of them will become the headmaster of Heimland and gain knighthood. Both in terms of status and taxation. will be much higher than before.

Siegel had already written about these things, so he dealt with them quickly, and it was Janet's situation that really gave him a headache. He tried every means to find help from the people around him, but after a few days there was no good solution.

"Siegel, someone can only suppress transformation and appease emotions, but has no ability to remove them." Rhett sat directly on the ground, but he was still higher than others. He tilted his head and said angrily: "It is her own vitality that causes this situation. Someone's healing ability can only strengthen her vitality. It cannot be killed, so she is powerless in the face of this situation."

Siegel sat across from him, nodding haggardly. In the past few days, he has been trying common magic methods such as dispelling magic and eliminating curses, and using magic circles to increase the strength of his spells, or to perform spell operations more precisely and meticulously, but no matter how hard he tried, it was to no avail. The power of the spell directly penetrated Janet's body and dissipated without stopping. This shows that the magic has not found a target that can work, and the choice of the spell is completely wrong.

"Someone used to treat it with toxins and blights. But it turned out not to be the case."

"Thank you Rhett," Siegel said, "I found this out too. Janet wasn't weakened, she was strengthened. Her bloodline, which was originally very thin, was now able to manifest itself. .If this happens to the warlocks. I'm afraid they will cheer for the enhancement of their abilities."

The golem nodded, "But the warlock stimulated the bloodline to strengthen himself, not by external force. Janet's natural transformation ability caused the bloodline evolution to gradually get out of control, so he lost his mind. Someone discovered that the source of the induced power has been linked to Her transformations are combined together. This root cause cannot be eliminated, and the alienation has always existed. Janet can only control her emotions through more and better control. By controlling her transformation, the process of demonization can be slowed down."

"I would never make Janet a devil." Siegel clenched his fists.

"Someone will pray and help in any way they can," Reid said. "But if Janet is completely transformed into the devil and loses control, someone won't let her hurt anyone else."

Siegel stared at Rhett's eyes, pointed to his chest and said, "If that happens, I'll handle it."

"Someone understands, someone will come to you first, but someone can't sit back and watch the danger expand." The golem has his own insistence, but he also promises to keep this secret, just like before.

Siegel remembered that when he was fighting blood magic, he had seen the blood of several people mixed together and become a tool manipulated by the blood magician. He also clearly remembered the fishy smell and the pain of suffocation. What secrets are hidden in blood and blood, why can blood magicians be so fascinated?

After Janet had a fever and was so weak that she was almost taken away by death, Dr. Reese's prescription cured her. Thinking about it now is full of doubts. It was a potion for Evan, because he forgot to take an extra portion. The influence of the blood magician has not yet found the root cause, why was Dr. Rees able to find a remedy so quickly?

Having learned a lot about alchemy and medicine, Siegel knew how difficult it was to make a potion. Due to differences in race, physique, age, and various circumstances, it is difficult to find all medicinal herbs, let alone finished medicines?

A few people in the cave at the time, Evan, Janet, Aaron, a paladin whose name has long been forgotten, and Earl Todd - Siegel shook his head, Earl Todd was not blood drawn and could not be counted in the Inside—and of course myself. In all of them, their symptoms are completely absent, which may also be related to their different roles in the blood mage ritual.

Both Evan and Janet took Dr. Reese's medicine and both recovered well. I just don't know how Evan is doing now? But I think he doesn't have a demon bloodline, so he won't turn out of control, and he should be fine.

Siegel was taken aback and thought of Prince Aaron. His later frail physique. What exactly causes the symptoms of alcoholism? Blood Mage or Doctor Reese? Why is the health of the heir to the royal family getting worse and worse, and when he finally returns to Waterdeep, he can hardly control himself, and he can't even stick to a simple ceremony? More precisely, how could it be even worse than an illegitimate child?

There is a clear conspiracy in this, and it can no longer be regarded as an accident in an adventure. The Knox Commons overshadowed Master Liel's prophecy. Leading to the prince's reckless adventure, leading to the blood mage, and step by step leading to the current situation. What is all this for?

There seems to be layers of fog covering past events, and a terrible conspiracy is hiding behind the fog. Siegel knew that the conspiracy could not be against himself or Janet, who were just no-names, budding adventurers at the time. Only Prince Aaron is worthy of such a mobilization, and the starry royal family is the target of the conspiracy.

Only by knowing their motives can we infer their methods, and knowing what the blood magicians have done to everyone, can it be possible to prescribe the right medicine. Find a way to stop Janet from getting worse, so the root of it all lies with the Blood Mage. Thinking of this, Siegel walked out of the study and went straight to the library.

Thousands of various books, manuscripts and scrolls of research materials are stored here. Fortunately, it has just been built and has been accurately classified, so it is more convenient to find information about blood magicians.

Several thick books were placed in front of Siegel, and Edith's disciple was looking at Siegel with strange eyes. They have doubts in their hearts but dare not ask, after all, not all mages like blood magic. In some areas, blood magic is considered an outlier. Research has gone astray. As in many folklore, blood is used to summon demons to gain power, but few people know that blood can also be used to summon angels to descend. Blood sacrifices are often associated with exotic existences, and mages have better means. So basically abandoned the blood magician method. He secretly hoped that Lord Siegel would not take this path.

Some books in the library record the discussions between the Mages Association and the Mages Association on some magical spells. There's a lot of crazy whimsy in there, and a lot of unrealistic whimsy. Dragons that don't eat meat have stronger magical powers, something Siegel once read about here.

In an ancient record, he found a record:

"After studying the astrology, it can be determined that the power of fate is hidden in the blood. Although this power is not enough to determine the future direction. But it can really affect many things. Can you tap the potential of this energy to increase the power of prophecy spells? accuracy?"

The person who said this was a human mage named Congreve Gary, a name Siegel found in another biography. He was a mage specializing in prophecy in his early years, and if he continued to develop, he might become a character like Master Lier. But then he turned to blood magic, and eventually died of his own magic experiments.

Many of his disciples later also studied blood magic deeply, and gradually formed a new faction. As the magic power grew, they tried to experiment.

This record is relatively secret, and Siegel found clues in the trial of the evil spellcaster by the Mages Association based on the years. There was a time when the bloodline of the Star Kingdom was thin for three consecutive generations, and the descendants were difficult. Later, it was discovered that the Mage Consultant at that time had secretly made a move. They used the blood of the royal family to create gore golems and secretly conduct some kind of experiment. The actual purpose of the experiment is not recorded in the book, except that it is "considered to cast some kind of curse". It was the Mage Association who first discovered this situation and punished it earlier than the Fanxing Royal Family.

Siegel analyzed based on later historical records that this incident ultimately seriously affected the relationship between the Mage Association and the Starry Royal Family, causing the latter to fully cooperate with the Temple of Dawn. In order to make up for the rift in the relationship, the Mage Association had to set up a school city, and let the royal family of stars participate in the management of the school city and the selection of consultant mages.

But hundreds of years have passed, and it is no longer possible for the Mages Association to restore the intimacy between it and the Starry Kingdom.

The blood magician, blood, and the starry royal family~www.novelmt.com~ These key points are consistent with what happened in the city wall and mountains. The biggest possibility is that the conspiracy of the year has reappeared. The previous time was a blood demon puppet, but this time it was to stimulate the power in the bloodline. But what is the use of the blood of the royal family being stimulated, the prince will still become the king.

Siegel was horrified, thinking about Evan's blood transfusion to Aaron, and thinking that blood magic was the original purpose: to absorb the power of blood, prolong his life, change his body, and change his fate. He gradually connected a series of clues and deduced their goals.

The blood magician originally wanted to add the bloodline power of the starry royal family to himself, but was stopped by Siegel. It is possible that Dr. Rees will take over from here. Aaron's weakness and Evan's enhancement are both related to the stimulation and transfer of blood vessels. Does he want Evan to become the king of the star kingdom?

If the illegitimate child can become a king under impossible adversity on the premise of stimulating the blood, isn't that the strongest evidence of the correctness of Congreve Gary's research back then? Moreover, the benefits that can be obtained from this are so huge, a whole country!

Siegel took a deep breath, lost in thought. (To be continued.)
